My August schedule has been heavy in terms of events but September is proving to be equally challenging with my daily deadlines. I told Ponggo before the month started that for me to be able to tackle this huge task, I’ll give up blogging so I can streamline my tasks. Well, lo and behold, look […]
I don’t know when I will ever learn to be completely comfortable with the idea of this awkward non-reply in the middle of a conversation. I must say though that I have improved over the years. I no longer spend hours and hours questioning myself and doing some useless why-why analysis as to why I
Hello Guys! 🙂 We’re down to the last 5 workshops of the year. Well, I do have a confession to make. Before, I would schedule workshops only 1-2 months in advance but as soon as I found out I was pregnant last summer, I started booking most of the scheds coupled with tiny notes as
I started the day feeling feverish but it ended up being a really productive day! I’m just scared that every single time I’m feeling inspired or I get to do a lot of things, I sort of have crash next day. My brain refuses to work and I enter that phase where I become
Today, I really wanted to concentrate on my deadline. But Ponggo noticed I was getting burned out so I decided to start my day by exercising in the morning instead. After that, I found myself refilling the calories I’ve burned. *Oops* People ask me why I still exercise, well, I always do for my mood
Lately, I’ve been working on a project that requires me to draw religiously for at least 4 hours a day. So far, I’m on track. *Whew!* It’s challenging and rewarding so far. I really really try not to fall asleep at night when I have to finish the last few corners of my illustration. Yep,
How many times does this have to happen in our lifetime???

I was so hungry the other day. Burgers are not really my top of mind food but that day, the burger I was having was sooooo delicious. I didn’t know if it was really tasty or if I was just really hungry. But, I noticed, when I’m full, I tend to critique my food more.
So I was initially planning not to find out the gender of the baby because I thought that there’s already so much that science could tell you these days so why not leave out one tiny detail so things would be more exciting inside the delivery room! 🙂 I shared my plans with Ponggo &
I’ve started thinking about how my life would be next year upon giving birth. I’m pretty sure that somewhere between changing diapers and chasing sleep, handling my social networking accounts or even making sure that the blog is alive is the least of my worries. One of the things that my friends & I get
They say when you’re pregnant you have to let the baby listen to classical music. Well, I’m sorry kid. I really try but most of the time, I just find it more relaxing to sing to myself (in the absence of an audience) especially when the acoustics of the bathroom, elevator, fire exit & car
I’m currently in my 5th month of pregnancy and my weight gain just skyrocketed. Well, according to my pregnancy app, it is expected. But, these days, since I no longer have crazy hormones that force me to return my food to where they originally belonged–outside my body, I can now eat more. *Woops!* Just today,
This post is dedicated to my non-romantic hubby Ponggo. I remember very clearly last year, I asked him to buy my favorite paints for me. I would like to think that every other guy would have probably given this to their girlfriend / wife / loved one complete with pet names, puppy eyes & baby
Oh! Brighter Days See you this Saturday for the launch of Oh Brighter Days with Heima. 🙂 It’s a colorful collaboration between the Googly Gooeys & Heima–a quirky home & lifestyle store. But wait? Where did it all begin? I’ve been such a fan of Heima for a long time now. I don’t know how many parties
Hello from Singapore! 🙂 I don’t usually have time to blog while I’m on a trip but today, I just had to spend time to recover from our early morning flight–hence, lack of sleep. I’ve been kinder to my body ever since I got pregnant. I’m also resting & gathering some energy for a couple
I missed making comics so much! It’s been a whiiiiiile! I’ve been stuck with all the back end operations doing errands here and there. Although, I must say, that part was also a refreshing break from getting stuck and finding myself zoning out while scrolling my feed on different social networking sites. 🙂 A couple
Ola! 🙂 How are you so far? Thank you so much to all those who signed up for our July & August workshops. We’re glad to announce that all of them are full save for the few slots left we have for the Digitizing Class on August 16. 🙂 So we wanted to give lettering
Whew! August will prove to be a busy month with the Singapore workshops, the secret event on August 8 😉 and the workshops here in Manila! 🙂 But, it’s going to be an exciting one. I don’t know why I’m doing this but I’ll be away from the workshop scene come December / January /
It’s been a really cold past 48 hours and I’m actually grateful for this kind of weather after having to endure the not-so-human-friendly summer heat (i.e. 39 degrees Celsius). Well, on raniy days like these, I just really hope everyone’s in somewhere safe & warm. By warm, I mean, you could be in thick clothing
I’ve always been wanting to share some tips on how to make your colors vibrant but them pregnancy hormones have been kicking in and I’m just usually asleep. For example, I actually started working on my outline and practicing my monologue for TypeLabMNL more than a month ago. (Yes, I would speak to myself in
